Bill > S414

This bill requires large digital advertising platforms with over 100 million monthly users to submit annual reports to the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) about their public service advertisements related to mental health. Specifically, the platforms must report the number and percentage of public service ads, their estimated dollar value, the quantity of ads focusing on local mental health resources and free mental health services, and how these ads meet the bill's definition of a public service advertisement. The bill defines a public service advertisement as a free, electronically served ad that promotes mental health resources addressing issues like social isolation, self-harm, suicide, eating disorders, substance abuse, and behavioral addiction. The FTC must then compile these platform reports and submit an annual summary to congressional committees. The bill includes protections to ensure these reporting requirements do not override existing privacy or data security laws, and the entire reporting mandate will sunset after five years from the date of enactment.
